A fine vac for the car
This vacuum was delivered quickly, and has just the right attachments. The cord wraps around the base, so you aren't chasing it around in storage (see the snappy photo attached). It's just right for the car. However, if you are expecting car wash vacuum-level suction, you won't get it. The suction does suffice.

Love it
I had a family member purchased this for me out of state because I don't have a store that sells items like these.I was looking for a car vac with a long cord I wanted something that plugs into the wall like the old dirt devils that were around. I over looked the part that it plugs into a 12v in your car when I received it I immediately tested it out and was pleasantly surprised how well I was able to do my whole car and i have a large SUV because of the length of the cord the suction is not super powerful but it does pick up dirt very well and I love the fact the filter can be taken out and washed and reused again and again before replacing it so no bags are needed. Perfect for traveling takes up little room in the car .

    Great Vaccum
    I bought this about a month ago and glad that I did. This vacuum is very easy to use and does a great job. It is very well made and durable.

        Just what I needed
        I bought this 2 weeks ago I've been using it and it's been pretty successful. Turn the car on for maximum use.

          Very handy
          I have a terrible vacuum for the house for anything that requires a hose and attachment. This Dustbuster auto vac made it actually possible to properly clean my car! I like that it’s so transportable and takes up little room. The cord is sufficiently long enough that it’s not a struggle to reach the whole inside of the car. The only drawback is that the car needs to be running in order to work and that means you can be breathing a lot of fumes during the process especially if the car needs a lot of cleaning We have a hybrid so it wasn’t blowiexhaust the whole time so that wasn’t as bad as it could’ve been. I like the bristled brush over the long nozzle as it seemed to do a better overall job with better suction but the long nozzle is really good for between the seats where you can’t reach with the bristle brush and it has a lot of reach. It takes really vigorous brushing to get long dog hair out that becomes weaves into fabric with the bristle brush but gets it all out with some work. Overall, I’m very happy with this purchase!

            Misleading
            The 3 is generous... The bag looks nothing like the picture, mesh material and about the size of a children's backpack. Also, the suction is horrible, accessories came grey not orange like the picture. I understand it's a mobile vacuum, "dust buster" but nothing like I expected. Especially not from black & decker. This was a gift for my mom for Christmas, really the only thing she REALLY wanted. Very disappointed with the product.

              Lightweight and easy to handle. Looks fairly durable. It sure beats dragging my home vacuum cleaner outside. The cord is a good length and the attachments are handy.

              Lacks power
              If you are doing weekly maintenance cleaning or light cleaning this vacuum is ok. If your vehicle is pretty dirty though don't waste your time. This vacuum has very light suction.

                Great vac
                Great vac. Nice attachments. Durable and we'll made. Biggest disappointment was the carrying case not as shown they give you one of those net bags like you get with 5 lbs. Of oranges, very dusappointing,

                Met my expectations
                We were looking for an efficient and small car vacuum cleaner. This met our needs since we had only to plug it into the car's receptacle for power.

                Not bad
                I love it because it fits in back of my car storage. It's not very strong to suck deep dirt.

                  Dont bother
                  I bought this base on reviews only. I needed something to help with dog hair and getting between the seats and under the dash. This had no power with the dog hair (and thats with vehicle running). Only positive is the attachment's. My advice is if you need something to pick up dog hair....buy a roll of masking tape. So far for me, that works best and a lot cheaper

                    Weak
                    At full power this DustBuster is very weak and does not even suck in some grains of sand

                      Excellent Purchase
                      This vacuum works very well, with good suction. The convenience of not having to pull out the house vacuum and worry about where to plug in the cord just for a quick touch up are great selling points. I do recommend this product for price and performance.
